I have about a half O of really cracker-dry shrooms. I don't care much for chewing on them because the texture makes me gag so bad! I was thinking about grinding up about an eighth of mushrooms and just mixing it with some orange juice. My question though is will this cause the potency of the mushrooms to falter in any way? I read somewhere that this was possible but I don't quite see how this is possible. Any help would be much appreciated. eace:
Your mushrooms will not degrade if you only put them in liquid right before consuming them - however if you store mushrooms in liquid for an extended period of time then you may find that they decrease in potency (the active ingredient in mushrooms, psilocin/psilocybin is not very tolerant to long periods of moisture). Grinding up mushrooms should have a negligible effect on potency, if any at all - even if they are stored long term in a ground up form.
this is how I usually ingest mushrooms. It doesn't do anything to the potency and I actually find it kicks in a few minutes faster than usual when mixed with OJ
Thanks a lot guys for the insightful responses! I didn't believe it would do much to the potency of the mushrooms but better safe than sorry. I plan on storing them just as they are right now and then crushing the desired dose just before I consume them. Any tips on how I should store dried mushrooms?
I really can't get away with shrooming anymore, for one because it's illegal and I try to be responsible if possible, so taking illegal mushrooms is not a good option for me, and I think I would probably have a bad trip. So I'm probably the wrong person to give any kind of advice about it, but from past experience (and I don't even like to talk about this anymore to be perfectly honest) I would say mix it with some oatmeal with some curry and pepper. I don't know if it will diminish the potency but it just sounds gross with orange juice.
its not; you can't taste the mushrooms at all if you grind them up. I always throw the mushrooms and OJ together in a blender, it makes a yummy mushroom smoothie!
Put them in a plastic (or glass) container or a plastic zip-loc bag. If you're using a bag, try to press as much air out of it as possible. You want to keep the mush dry, cool and away from light. A closet is a good place. You can throw a dessicant pack in to whatever container you're using to hold your mush - just make sure not to eat it later!
Crushed up and put into tea is nice, and fast... I hear heating makes it more active, or the molecular structure to for easier absorption. Mine alerted at 15mins, wore off, then came back at 40mins ++, vs. hour chewing raw comeup. does vitamin c help? lucy as well?
As you put em in a skillet for a while, with onions, those seasonings... sauces, feta, make a meal. :sunny: LSD sauce for special, lol. ...oh, desert be brownies. lol, had to, hungry an craving. Best o' luck.
